English Majolica Wild Rose Platter, circa late 1800s, Antique Majolica

English Wild Rose Majolica Platter, circa late 1800s. 

Pink Rose blooms and buds with leafy green foliage, the aqua blue textured background and rich cobalt blue center are amazing. Add  the handles fashioned to look like the woody rose stems and you can see why this Majolica piece a true stunner. 

There are a couple of chips on the bottom rim but nothing that detracts from it’s displayability(price reflects). It really is in lovely overall condition considering it’s age. 

I acquired this piece at the estate of two highly regarded college professors who after retirement in the 1990s turned their love for collecting into a prosperous antique business selling in Round Top as well as across the South.
As you can imagine, their estate was unbelievable…it had the most extensive Majolica collection I’ve ever seen. They were avid book collectors, orchid enthusiasts, and custom framers who expertly framed botanicals and birds from antique books and magazines. 

It measures 13” long handle to handle x 9” wide x 1.25” tall.
